About Tower
Tower - photo wallpapers: Tower Boč - 998 m, Slovenia.
Probably the oldest tower still standing is the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Pisa, Italy built from 1173 until 1372. The oldest towers in the United States are the Milwaukee City Hall, built in 1895 in Milwaukee, Visconsin and the Woolworth Building, completed in 1913 in New York City. Old English torr is from Latin turris via Old French tor. The Latin term together with Greek τύρσις was loaned from a pre-Indo-European Mediterranean language, connected with the Illyrian toponym Βου-δοργίς. With the Lydian toponyms Τύρρα, Τύρσα, it has been connected with the ethnonym Τυρσήνοί as well as with Tusci (from *Turs-ci), the Greek and Latin names for the Etruscans (Kretschmer Glotta 22, 110ff.) The term "tower" is also sometimes used to refer to firefighting
equipment with an extremely tall ladder designed for use in
firefighting/rescue operations involving high-rise buildings.
